About This Talk:

This talk delves into the concept of a psychedelic future where knowledge about psychedelics is disseminated through community-based events rather than solely through medical models. The speakers discuss the role of psychedelic societies, which are community-led groups that provide education and integration services. With over 300 such societies worldwide, the goal is to foster a network that thrives on shared resources and collective learning. The talk highlights the efforts to connect these societies, develop resources, and create mentorship programs to ensure that people can learn about psychedelics in a supportive and communal setting.
